Moving FastDraw to a new computer

Backup Up Your Plays to the Cloud

To get started on your new computer, the first step is to save a Backup of your play library to the FastModel cloud server, which can be done by clicking the Sync icon. (More info on the Sync process can be foundhere.)

Installation and Activation on New Computer

Now for your new computer, you can download the FastDraw software from our downloads page. Once you have installed FastDraw, you will need to activate the new computer. If you do not know your e-mail and password, you can click the forgot password link, or you can use this link to retrieve your activation key.

Restoring Your Sync File

Once you have completed your activation and opened FastDraw, you should receive a prompt asking you if you would like to download your Sync file. Choose "Restore On-line Backup" to download your plays to your new computer.

If you cancelled the prompt to download the Sync file, or if you would like to do it at a later time, you can manually download your Sync file at any time. To do this, click the Sync icon. Clicking Sync will allow you to select and download your file so that you can access your plays on the new computer.

Saving Your File

Once your Sync file finishes downloading, open the File menu from the top menu bar and choose Save File. This will save your file locally on your hard drive, which also ensures that the file will open automatically the next time you start FastDraw. From this point forward, be sure to continue to frequently click the Sync icon to save your work to our cloud server, offering an additional layer of protection for your save file.

Syncing Your Computers

After you have installed and activated FastDraw on a new computer, you can open FastDraw on your old computer and click the Sync icon to save a copy of your play library to our cloud server. Back your new computer, find and click Sync icon. Clicking Sync will download your backup file and give you access to your full play library.
